We have achieved cotyledons!

OMG, you guys! It had been roughly a week, and already I have little green sprouts popping up in the arugula seed flat! It's not like we have full plants already, but those first two little cotyledons (remember from freshman year Biology in high school?) are busting a move.

Pretty cool, huh? I did put several arugula seeds in each well, and you can see that there are some growing pretty close together. I'll have to separate them out as they get bigger. All I did was water them every day, and here we are! After the cotyledons come the "true leaves", and then I'll get mega excited.
